Dairy Technology

It all started with the milk centrifuge. Today, Westfalia Separator supplies highly developed separators, decanters, process lines and installations for the production of milk and milk by-products. Centrifugal separation technology is a byword for economy and quality and an important process stage in the milk industry.

Applications include:

  • Skimming of milk and whey
  • Clarification of milk and whey
  • Bacteria-removing of milk and whey
  • Concentration of cream

Production and recovery of:

  • Casein
  • Cheese fines
  • Soft Cheese (quark)
  • Fresh cheese
  • Lactose
  • Whey protein
  • Butter
  • Butter oil

We have solutions tailored to your individual products and needs too. Special processes such as the DPL process for furthur de-fatting of whey or the DCP process (calcium phosphate separation) have been developed by Westfalia Separator.

Oils and Fats Processing

On account of the large number of possible applications, edible oil is increasingly gaining significance as an essentail constituent in the food industry. Meanwhile, new fields of application have been opened up - also outside the food industry

The quality of the end product is primarily dependent on the refining process and the nature of the raw oil. Westfalia Separator has made a decisive contribution to the development of continuous refining processes through the application of centrifugal separation technology. Depending on the raw oil qualities, and tailored to meet local requirements, Westfalia Separator supplies special separators as single machines or integrated in complete process lines, e.g. for:

  • Cottonseed oil
  • Maize germ oil
  • Palm oil
  • Rape sees oil
  • Soybean oil
  • Sunflower oil

 

as well as furthur applications in the oleo-chemical industry such as:

  • Processing of fatty acids
  • Soap production
  • Glycerine production
  • Production of methlester
  • Catalyst separation
  • Epoxydised oils

Fields of application are:

  • Press oil clarification
  • De-gumming
  • Neutralization
  • Washing
  • Winterization
  • Fractionation

Beverage Technology

Beverage technology offers a wide range of activities for separation technology. Separators and decanters have been indispensable units for decades in the production of beer, wine, fruit and vegetable juices and other beverages. In the decisive process stages, continuously operating centrifuges ensure economical processing and high quality of the end product.

Fields of application are, e.g., the production/recovery of:

  • Beer
  • Wine
  • Sparkling wine
  • Champagne
  • Citrus juice
  • Premium juice from fruits, berries ,vegetables
  • Base substances for soft drinks
  • Essential oils
  • Coffee
  • Tea
  • Soy milk

In the case of product recovery, for example, premium juice using FRUPEX® process, the priority is maximum yield and highest product quality. In product processing, as with winemaking and beer production, efficient clarification/concentration makes for high economy of the entire process along with enhanced product quality.

Thanks to the many years of experience and the specialist know-how, Westfalia Separator is a competent partner for solutions with single machines or complete process lines.
